UNSPSC 20141001: Wellhead actuators

UNSPSC 20141001 Wellhead actuators is a Commodity code that in practice encompasses environmental equipment extraction and removal services for state and local government facilities, based on recent solicitation activity. The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division issued RFP 240011 for EPA-certified refrigerant reclamation services at the Los Reales Sustainability Campus, seeking extraction of gases from approximately 50 units weekly with biweekly minimum extraction intervals, comprehensive gas destruction or recycling documentation, and certified technician compliance. The scope reflects municipal procurement of specialized environmental compliance services rather than hardware components; state and local buyers under this code engage EPA-certified contractors capable of managing hazardous refrigerant extraction, documentation, and regulatory adherence. Issuing bodies include city environmental divisions managing sustainability campuses and municipal facility operations; the Tucson procurement shows a single-year initial contract term with up to four one-year renewal options, suggesting ongoing operational need within city infrastructure management rather than one-time capital procurement.

Activity is concentrated in the Southwest, with documented recent solicitations in Arizona. Sourcewell, a Minnesota-based cooperative purchasing unit, also posted RFP 061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment on behalf of participating counties in Washington state (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima) and broader governmental entities, though this opportunity appears misaligned with the wellhead actuator code's nominal scope and offers limited decision-relevant signal for environmental equipment contractors. The Tucson refrigerant reclamation RFP (due September 19, 2024, response date now past) and the Sourcewell law enforcement equipment RFP (due June 16, 2026) represent the recorded recent activity under this code; neither identifies incumbent vendors, specific budget ranges, or formal set-aside designations, though the Tucson procurement references FTA Terms and Conditions with typical DBE provisions.
